Tight Ponytails

When I was a little girl I would sit while mom brushed out my long, curly hair. Painful, yes. But nothing is more painful than a too-tight ponytail. Aside from it causing traction alopecia in many women, it pulls your eyes and face. With this in mind, I share with you my disturbing Fashion Week moment: Mena Suvari at Project Runway alum Christian Siriano’s show. The blogosphere is atwitter with talk of new tattoos on her back, however this hairstyle looks especially painful and alien.
